Riding, Learning, and Fun at Altitude
In Les 2 Alpes, a world-renowned resort in the Oisans region, snowboarding is a discipline accessible to all—from beginners to those curious about new sensations. Supervised initiation sessions let you experience this ride in a new way, in a safe, dynamic, and friendly environment.
Whether you're on holiday with family, friends, or taking part in an organized trip, seminar, or team building event, this activity fits perfectly into a mountain discovery program.
A Technical and Progressive First Experience

Familiarization with the gear (boots, bindings, regular or goofy stance)
Static and dynamic balance exercises
First turns (frontside / backside)
Managing speed and direction
Braking techniques and safe posture practices
Lessons take place on gentle, beginner-friendly slopes, perfectly suited for first descents. In just a few hours, you'll progress from flat terrain to gentle slopes with confidence.

Team spirit: a new activity where everyone starts at the same level
Challenge and cooperation: great for breaking the ice in a professional context
Fun and memorable moments: ideal for strengthening group cohesion
This activity fits naturally into themed or multi-activity trips, whether for a company committee, school group, event agency, or sports association.
